No Time for Nuts is a 2006 American animated short film from Blue Sky Studios, starring Scrat from Ice Age.

Directed by Chris Renaud and Mike Thurmeier, it was debuted on November 21, 2006, on the DVD[1] and Blu-ray[2] release of Ice Age: The Meltdown.

Scrat snarls and tries to beat up the time machine, but it zaps him too, sending him to the Middle Ages, where he finds the acorn wedged under a large rock.

He accidentally frees the acorn but gets his tail stuck in the process and takes it and the time machine and races off to find cover, only to hide in the barrel of a lit cannon.

He is overjoyed, thinking he is back home, but he soon sees the RMS Titanic appear out of nowhere, heading straight towards him; he is actually on April 14, 1912, A.D. and on the frozen North Atlantic, the time and location of the ship's sinking.

Scrat is then sent into many dangerous places where he would have been killed if he had not activated the time machine in time; under a launching Saturn V rocket during the Space Race, in a dark, modern-day jewelry store where he sets the alarms off when he mistakes a diamond for his acorn, in a girl's locker room in the present where he gets hit with a roller brush, a guillotine in the French Revolution, during Benjamin Franklin's kite flying experiment, in the path of a wrecking ball demolishing an old brick building, in front of the Hiroshima bombing, in the path of an oncoming steam locomotive in the Wild West, and in front of the groin of Michelangelo's David (this does not threaten him, but he is rather embarrassed).

In 2015, an extended version of the short, featuring new extended footage with Scrat ending up in the Mesozoic era, an American Museum of Natural History in 2015 A.D., and then in the year 2552 A.D. was remade by SimEx-Iwerks into a 4D film, titled Ice Age: No Time For Nuts 4-D.[5] Since then, the film has been shown at the San Diego Zoo, The Adventuredome in Las Vegas, NV, Columbus Zoo and Aquarium in Powell, Ohio,[6] Kennywood in Pittsburgh, Detroit Zoo in Michigan, Alton Towers (2015 - 2016), the Central Park Zoo in New York City, and somewhere in Fleetwood cinema [7] in the United Kingdom, Gardaland Park in Italy, Madame Tussauds Shanghai, Movie Park Germany,[8][9] Futuroscope in France,[10] and İstanbul in Turkey.
